Andrei Arlovski Discusses Return To UFC

Late last week it was announced that former UFC Heavyweight Champion Andrei Arlovski would make his return to the UFC and face Brendan Schaub at UFC 174.

In an interview conducted by MMAFighting.com, Arlovski gave his thoughts on returning to the world’s biggest MMA promotion:

“I’m very happy to be back in the UFC. It’s a great job, my management team. Thank you, Dana White. I’m already very excited and looking forward to having another debut in the UFC on June 14th. I always knew I was going to come back,” Arlovski said. “It was sooner or later. I knew I was going to come back to the UFC soon. “I had some problems a couple of years ago. It wasn’t really a good time for me. I had a few losses. It wasn’t really smart for me to fight back like a couple of years ago, but I also want to say thank you to all promotions, companies that gave me an opportunity in my career. Right now, I’m just very happy and ready to go. I’m ready to reach all of my goals.”
